Rhubarb is in season now. Do any of you grow rhubarb in your gardens? I'd like to. My great Granny Moe had rhubarb in hers. She made strawberry rhubarb pie and it was wonderful. My little sprouts had never tasted rhubarb before today. They liked it. And really, what's not to like? Its crisp and tart goodness bakes right up like an apple. Delicious.Rhubarb Crisp:
3 cups chopped rhubarb
1 cup white sugar
3/4 cup rolled oats
1 tsp. flour
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/3 cup brown sugar
In a large bowl combine first six ingredients. Stir until well mixed. Pour into a prepared baking dish.
Topping:
3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 cup butter
In small bowl, stir together the topping mix. Blend with fork until all flour is incorporated. Sprinkle over rhubarb mixture. Bake 30 min. or until rhubarb is tender. Serve hot from the oven with vanilla or buttermilk ice cream.
